Party Tortilla Cheese Wheels (Printable Version)
# What You'll Need:
→ Smooth Mixture
01 -
2 packs (8 ounces each) cream cheese, softened to room temp
02 -
1/2 cup regular sour cream
03 -
1 package (1 1/4 ounces) taco spice mix of your choice
→ Tasty Add-ins
04 -
1 can (4 ounces) green chilies, drained thoroughly
05 -
1 can (4 ounces) sliced black olives, drained and cut up
06 -
1 cup grated Colby Jack or sharp cheddar, fresh not packaged
→ Outer Layer
07 -
10-12 big flour tortillas, fresh from the pack
# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Mix your room temp cream cheese in a big bowl until smooth without any lumps. Make sure to wipe down the edges and bottom so everything mixes well.
02 -
Stir in your sour cream and taco spices until you get a smooth, even mixture with no streaks.
03 -
Gently stir in the green chilies, black olives, and cheese until they're all coated nicely in the cream cheese mix.
04 -
Put some filling on each tortilla, leaving a small edge around the border. Roll them up tightly to form logs.
05 -
Cover each rolled tortilla with plastic wrap and stick them in the fridge for 1-2 hours. This makes them easier to cut and lets the flavors blend together.
06 -
After chilling, take off the wrap and cut each log into 1-inch rounds. Put them on a nice plate and serve with extra sour cream or guac for dipping!
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Try adding chopped hot peppers, fresh tomatoes, or green herbs to make the filling your own.
02 -
Switch things up with different cheeses like pepper jack or taco blend, and try colored tortillas for a fun look!
